EN24 Chemical Composition
| Element | Range (per standard) |
|---|---|
| Carbon (C) | 0.36 – 0.44 % |
| Nickel (Ni) | 1.30 – 1.70 % |
| Chromium (Cr) | 1.00 – 1.40 % |
| Molybdenum (Mo) | 0.20 – 0.35 % |
| Manganese (Mn) | 0.45 – 0.70 % |
Reference ranges vary by standard revision and exact designation. Confirm the purchase specification and use the Mill Test Certificate for the supplied heat.
EN24 Properties & Condition
| Property | Typical Value |
|---|---|
| Tensile Strength | 850 – 1000+ MPa (Q+T) |
| Typical Condition | Quenched & Tempered |
| Hardenability | Very deep — large sections |
| Toughness | High, including at low temperature |
Mechanical properties depend on heat-treatment condition and section size. Confirm the required values against the governing order specification before purchase.
